libxkbcommon consists of two shared libraries, libxkbcommon (the main
library) and libxkbcommon-x11 (an addon library for XCB clients).
The files for libxkbcommon-x11 are:
libxkbcommon-x11.a libxkbcommon-x11.so* xkbcommon/xkbcommon-x11.h
xkbcommon-x11.map xkbcommon-x11.pc
libxkbcommon-x11 can be disabled with --disable-x11 (see
`./configure --help` for other options/variables).
Dependencies for libxkbcommon:
- C compiler, autoconf, automake, pkg-config, libc, etc.
- (build optional) xorg-util-macros.
Output included in tarball.
- (build optional) bison (preferred) or byacc>=20141006.
Output included in tarball.
byacc must be configured with --enable-btyacc.
- (build optional, runtime) xkeyboard-config.
During build, for automatically detecting the value of
--with-xkb-config-root instead of guessing (/usr/share/X11/xkb).
During runtime, not strictly needed, but most users of the library
would need it.
- (runtime) libX11.
Contains the dataset for Compose support (/usr/share/X11/locale).
Please don't depend on it explicitly.
- (build optional) doxygen.
For generating the HTML documentation.
- (build optional) gperf.
Output included in git and tarball. To regenerate, use
`make update-keywords`.
Dependencies for libxkbcommon-x11:
- libxkbcommon.
- libxcb>=1.10 with libxcb-xkb.
Dependencies for libxkbcommon-x11 tests:
- xkbcomp, Xvfb.
If they are not available, the relevant tests are skipped.
Unless libxcb is always available as part of the system, it is preferred
that libxkbcommon and libxkbcommon-x11 be split into separate packages,
such that the main library does not depend on libxcb. This avoids a
transitive dependency of Wayland clients on X libraries.
